Chen Regains Traction

[user66118]

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 7,000 ante

Rep Porter called the bring-in with a {6-} up, and Tommy Chen completed with a {5-} . Porter called, and they drew out thusly:

Porter: (X)(X) / {6-} {6-} {5-} {10-} / (X)
Chen: (X)(X) / {5-} {2-} {8-} {3-} / (X)

Chen bet all the way, and Porter called through sixth street. On seventh, though, he didn't like his cards enough to make the last call, surrendering the pot to Chen.

That one moves the short stack back out of the basement as Chen climbs back close to 900,000, reducing Porter's edge as he sits with about 1.1 million now.
